Diving in

Posted on Tue, 13 Dec 2016 by midcenturyjo

Running, jumping, diving deep into the portfolio of interior designer Leanne Ford. Rising to the surface, shaking off the mundane, feeling refreshed and inspired. I couldn’t decide on my favourite house so I cherry picked from many.

Sunshine on the water

Posted on Fri, 9 Dec 2016 by midcenturyjo

Another stunning home from the Luxe Houses stable. Stylish, light filled rooms overlooking the Pittwater at Palm Beach. (I recognise this beautiful home as the work of interior designer Justine Hugh-Jones.) Dream holidays are made of this. Friends, family, fabulous house and sunshine sparkling on the water.

Blue and white beachside

Posted on Tue, 6 Dec 2016 by midcenturyjo

There’s something so fresh about a blue and white interior and I love this modern take on a classic look in this Newport Beach renovation by Jeff Trotter Design. From bobbin chairs to Burmese rain drum side tables, from beadboard to blue and white ikat cushions it’s the perfect coastal look for those who like their beachside classic not cliché.

Farmhouse modern

Shiplap, subway tiles, a hint of industrial and vintage, greys and blues with a hit of chartreuse.  When am I moving in? This Old House Northshore Farmhouse by Kristina Crestin Design.

Hump day holiday – part 1

Posted on Wed, 30 Nov 2016 by midcenturyjo

It’s Wednesday, hump day, the working week half done but still the promise of the weekend is just out of reach. If we can’t escape our everyday humdrum then perhaps we can take a virtual getaway to this simple but oh so stylish holiday home in the sleepy waterside hamlet of Patonga, north of Sydney. Nothing to do but sit back and relax, perhaps a dip in the river followed by a drink on the verandah. It’s about wet swimmers and tyre swings, old boats and the hum of summer insects, good books and good friends. Nothing precious except the memories and the objects d’art strewn about. The dream can be real though. Noojee is available for holiday let via Contemporary Hotels.
